Abstract

A data-storage device mounting apparatus includes an enclosure and one or more elastic members. The enclosure includes a shell and a cover. The elastic member includes a mounting portion mounted on the cover, a deformable portion, and an engaging portion. The mounting portion is attached to a first end of the deformable portion and the engaging portion attached to a second end of the deformable portion. The first deformable portion end is opposite the second deformable portion. The shell defines an opening, a cavity, and an engaging hole. The engaging portion engages with the engaging hole when the cover is engaged with the shell to substantially cover the shell opening. The engaging portion may be disengaged from the engaging hole allowing the cover to be disengaged from the shell. The data-storage device is positioned within the cavity when the cover is engaged with the shell.

  • The present disclosure is described in relation to a mounting apparatus for securing a data-storage device.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates an embodiment of a data-storage device mounting apparatus. The data-storage device mounting apparatus comprises an enclosure 20 for receiving a data-storage device 10, two elastic members 30, and a loading plate 40. A first connector 50 (shown in FIG. 4) and a second connector 60 (shown in FIG. 4) are mounted on the loading plate 40. The second connector 60 is configured to insert into the data-storage device 10. The first connector 50 and the second connector 60 are mounted on a circuit board 70. The circuit board 70 is mounted on the loading plate 40. In one embodiment, the data-storage device 10 is a mobile hard disk drive.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates that each elastic member 30 comprises a mounting portion 31 and a bent portion 33. The mounting portion 31 is substantially square. The bent portion 33 comprises a deformable portion 34 and an engaging portion 35. The deformable portion 34 comprises a connecting portion 36 extending inward from the mounting portion 31 and an extending portion 37 extending outward from the connecting portion 36. The engaging portion 35 extends outward from the extending portion 37. A first obtuse angle is defined between the mounting portion 31 and the connecting portion 36. A second obtuse angle is defined between the extending portion 37 and the connecting portion 36.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 illustrate that the enclosure 20 comprises a shell 21 and a cover 23 for covering the shell 21. The shell 21 is hollow, and defines a cavity 210 for receiving the data-storage device 10 and an opening 212. The shell 21 comprises two first side walls 25, two second side walls 26 parallel to each other, and a bottom wall 27. The two first side walls 25 are connected between the two second side walls 26. The bottom wall 27 is connected between the first side walls 25 and the second side walls 26. The first side walls 25, the two second side walls 26, and the bottom wall 27 cooperatively surround the cavity 210. The first side walls 25 and the two second side walls 26 cooperatively surround the opening 212. Each first side wall 25 defines a sliding groove 252 and an engaging hole 254. The sliding groove 252 comprises an inclined sliding surface 256.
  • The cover 23 comprises two first side portions 230, two second side portions 232, and a front portion 234. The two first side portions 230 connect between the two second side portions 232. The front portion 234 connects between the first side portions 230 and the second side portions 232. The front portion 234 defines an inserting hole 236. One elastic member 30 is mounted in the inside of one corresponding first side portion 230. The cover 23 defines a receiving portion 238. The two first side portions 230, the two second side portions 232, and the front portion 234 cooperatively surround the receiving portion 238.
  • FIGS. 5-7 illustrate that in use, each mounting portion 31 is secured to the first side portions 230 by pasting or by welding, or by other methods. The data-storage device 10 is fastened to the loading plate 40 by fasteners. The data-storage device 10, the first connector 50, the second connector 60, and the circuit 70 are placed in the cavity 210 from the opening 212. The cover 23 is moved and the opening 212 is aligned with the receiving portion 238. The engaging portion 35 abuts against the sliding surface 256. The connecting portion 36 is deformed to move the extending portion 37. The sliding groove 252 guides the engaging portion 35 to slide along the sliding surface 256 to an edge of the engaging hole 254. The connecting portion 36 rebounds to move the extending portion 37; thereby enabling the engaging portion 35 to engage in the engaging hole 254. The first connector 50 is aligned with the inserting hole 236 and located in the cover 23. The cover 23 covers the opening 212. To disassemble the data-storage device 10, the engaging portion 35 is pressed; the deformable portion 34 is elastically deformed to enable the engaging portion 35 to disengage from the engaging hole 254. The cover 23 is moved. The engaging portion 35 abuts against the sliding surface 256. The sliding groove 252 guides the engaging portion 35 to slide along the sliding surface 256. The cover 23 is disengaged from the shell 21. The data-storage device 10 is removed from the opening 212. The data-storage device 10 is moved to disengage from the loading plate 40 and to disengage from the second connector 60.
  • It is to be understood that even though numerous characteristics and advantages have been set forth in the foregoing description of embodiments, together with details of the structures and functions of the embodiments, the disclosure is illustrative only and changes may be made in detail, especially in the matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the disclosure to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
